List Class

Provides a lightweight, dynamically sizing array.

package com.ms.wfc.util

public class List
implements Cloneable

Remarks

The only extra overhead above the array items is 12 bytes that are used to store the increment, capacity, and version of the list. For a key-value store, see HashTable.

None of the methods in this class are synchronized to provide optimal performance. If a list is used in a multithreaded scenario, you should synchronize the list before calling functions, as shown in the following example:

public void doSomething(List list)
{ 
   Object[] objs;
   synchronized(list) {
      objs = list.getAllItems();
   }

   // Use objs.
}
